FTSE 100 suffers biggest weekly drop since April amid bond rout
Original: UK's FTSE 100 posts biggest weekly drop since April as bond rout rattles investors
London's FTSE 100 index recorded its steepest weekly decline since April as a sharp sell-off in bond markets unsettled equity investors. Rising bond yields, driven by expectations of higher interest rates, weighed on share prices across the index, with rate-sensitive sectors among the hardest hit. Traders are watching whether the bond rout extends into the coming week.
Why now: A surge in bond yields has spooked equity markets, making the FTSE 100's weekly loss a focal point for investors.
